Microprocessors and desktops was once the most restricting aspect in such a lot details processing structures. yet due to the enonnous development within the microelectronics undefined, such a lot info research projects might be processed in actual time. the information should be obtained by means of the processor in a few shape and processed and used to provide a few worthy functionality within the actual world.

The porous oxide gel is then heated to give densified glasses or polycrystalline solids. Since the heating can be done locally by a laser or an electron beam, the sol-gel method is a good candidate for direct patterning using lasers. It also lends itself naturally to doping and incorporation of impurities and formation of composites. This last attribute is quite important in regards to formation of waveguides and multilayer structures. Moreover, due to the softness of the oxide gel, embossing can be used to form gratings and other devices [28-31].

16 schematically shows the fabrication steps of fabricating a conducting tip [44,45]. ID). b) Anisotropic etching is used to etch the silicon and expose the <111> planes. c) Metallization and patterning are used to deposit W over the etched pyramidal pit. At this stage a variety of methods, including electroplating, can be used to build up W over the pit. d) Finally, the silicon is completely etched to release the Si3N4 beam with the integrated tungsten tip. 16 Steps used in the fabrication of a conducting tip supported by a Si3N 4 layer [44].
